The GR Corolla will touch down in South Africa in the second quarter of 2023, Toyota has announced. This latest addition to the Gazoo Racing stable will bring the number of GR models in the country to four, joining the GR Supra, GR Yaris and GR86.

The GR Corolla uses the same 1.6l, three-cylinder, turbocharged engine you find in the GR Yaris, except it's even more potent, making 221kW and 370Nm of torque.that's a six-speed manual fitted with Toyota's iMT system that automatically blips the throttle for you on downshifts. Of course, if you want to heel-and-toe the old-fashioned way, then you can turn it off.

xtra chassis braces have also been added between the rear-wheel wells, to the underfloor tunnel, and under the floor in front of the fuel tank to further reduce unwanted flex.
